I will be a good ways into LA before we do. I hate having to sound like a broken record. The setting is going to have to be set up a certain way for it all to go down right. I know patience can be hard, but you must wait. I am not going to rush my setting and ruin the idea I have placed a lot of time and effort into. That would not be fair to all of you and to myself. I am waiting for a very specific event to happen, and when it does I shall strike as a cobra from the shadows. Until then I am going to keep working on the idea as there is no such thing as too good.

My two plot ideas. Both have spoiler-y bits that I don't want to reveal here, which I have worked out with Harbertia over TG.

Submitted by Utceforp

The arrival of the Vocalists revealed the existence of the extraterrestrial to HEIR. Excited by this prospect, the board of governors replicated an alien FTL communication device using knowledge from the Vocalists, designed to intercept alien communication. They turned it on and... nothing. The cosmos was silent. The project was mothballed for a few years, until suddenly, a transmission was detected. Interested was renewed, translation efforts ensued, and finally the message was decrypted. It was a military message - a command from one star system to another detailing orders to eradicate the population of a planet. Further messages of this nature were uncovered, explaining why there were no extraterrestrials sending messages at first: Whatever was sending these messages wiped out all alien life in the area, and signs indicated that Earth is one of the next planets on their hit-list. Shrike convinced the board to not alert the entire world to the alien threat - due to the likelihood that Earth is being monitored by the future invaders, a large amount of communication revealing that Earth is aware of the aliens would cause them to change their message encryptions, preventing new messages from being translated and destroying HEIR's only advantage, as well as causing the aliens to prioritize Earth's destruction. Instead, the board of governors decided to use its considerable collective resources to covertly place human governments into a position where they are ready to face the threat, and in general prepare for war.


Submitted by Utceforp

Shrike used his HEIR resources to establish a boarding school on a small island in Hawaii, designed to train young superhumans to control their powers so that they don't endanger themselves and others, and allow them to one day become superheroes, if they so choose. But something is... off about the school, beyond the fact that its students are all superhuman. The school has many mysteries, the most notable being enormous monthly deliveries of unknown materials delivered via cargo ship. There are rumours that the school has a secret purpose to it beyond training superheroes. The rest will be revealed in time.
Signatures are so 2014.

Super Identity:
Real Identity: Robert Arthur Pendragon
Is the true identity public knowledge or private? Private
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Age fifteen, exploring the woods with Terra, age seventeen
Age twenty eight, driver license photo
Group Affiliation: United States Government
Legal Sanctions: Federal Agent
Powers:
None
Power Origin Type:
Altered Being: Was normal for their kind till contact with a mystic, chemical, genetic, or cosmic force granted them their power set.
Mystic: Powers are of a magical nature, or come from enchanted items.

Personality: Sarcastic and rather an asshole, Robert can be hard to get along with for those without humor. He enjoys hunting, fishing, and just generally being outdoors. He is known for having a cheerful and honest demeanor, while also having a bright intellect- one is not going to commonly find him sitting around unless he has a book in his hands while doing so. He loves with wife and children deeply and would do anything to secure their safety.
Background: A normal suburban life, Robert works for the United States Department of Defense as a Janitor or Maintenance Man as needed. He grew up in Alabama with his now wife Terra, the two having their son David when they were fifteen and seventeen. They live in New York David though takes residence at his aunt's home in Los Angeles for the time being as he has decided to school there due to an invitation he received inviting him to join a prestigious academy. Meanwhile his adopted daughter of British origin goes to school at Kennedy Elementary.

Super Identity:
Real Identity: David Icarus Pendragon
Is the true identity public knowledge or private? Private
Age: 15
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Human
Supernatural
Group Affiliation: None
Legal Sanctions: Private Citizen
Powers:
Angelic Physiology
Power Origin Type:
Mystic: Powers are of a magical nature, or come from enchanted items.
Personality: Cheerful and carefree, he is prone to getting in trouble, actually he is the indirect cause of many fights. He has no sense of intimidation and will punch the biggest, tallest, strongest man right in the face for so much as looking at him wrong. He never backs down from a fight and can be pretty aggressive; though he also has a soft side that he rarely ever shows. Under all that David actually enjoys the domestic life and dislikes fighting, but finds it essential to his survival in a cold world such as this one. He is willing to help pretty much anyone in need, but is a dirty fighter when it comes to throwing punches. This hyper lethal vector is a loose cannon waiting to go off when so much as a spark gets anywhere near him.
Background:
His childhood was interesting to say the least. His father was not the overly stern and aggressive type like most, both his parents were strict, but also caring. He spent the summers in LA with his aunt, where he would meet Opal, now the superheroine Magnitude, at the age of two his family would move to New York. Upon receiving a letter to go to Pointe Academy he accepted and joined, only to find it was an all girls school for those with magical powers... the invitation was actually meant for his sister, somehow David aced the exam though so he was admitted into the program as a trial student. He lives in the dorms, but on weekends is prone to visiting his aunt for dinner on Saturday nights. It is a rumor that all his classmates believe him to be gay as to his attitude towards girls being very antisocial and how spotless his room is, also, he cooks way too well for a normal guy.

Super Identity: Morgana, Queen of the Underworld
Real Identity: Morgan LaFay Pendragon
Is the true identity public knowledge or private? Private
Age: 5
Gender: Female
Appearance:
Image
Group Affiliation:
Powers:
Dark Magic (basically normal magic, but drawn from demons)
Power Origin Type:
Mystic: Powers are of a magical nature, or come from enchanted items.
Motivation:
Having Fun: The villain just plain enjoys breaking things, stealing, and beating up our heroes. He's not crazy, he just wants to have fun!
World Conquest: A simple understandable goal that usually involves threatening entire cities, or seeking to become so powerful that none can oppose.
Personality: Enjoyable to be around, she likes candy, but does not get to eat it often as her mother says it is bad. She is a daddy's girl, but when he is off working can be found clutching to her mother and enjoying her attention. She is rather stubborn, and like all children hates vegetables. She often uses her magic to play pranks on her brother, but loves him very much. She enjoys being read to and playing out legends. Often at home one can find her playing Knights with either Robert or David with her being King Arthur and them being the dragon. Truly joyful to be around Morgan is a rather bright young child as her potential seems limitless.
Background: Not much is actually known about her past, she comes from Britain where Robert found her orphaned and alone after some tragic car accident her files says. The actual events are unknown though, one can suppose Miss Pendragon would know, but given her acceptance of Morgan, probably due to finally having a little girl she can spoil, no one can get the real story. Rumors suggest that she is actually the victim of a hostage crisis gone bad where she was the only one that made it out. Given Robert is just a janitor though, not likely.

Just a few edits:

Super Identity: Shade
Real Identity: John Martor
Is the true identity public knowledge or private? Private
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Image

Image

Group Affiliation: The Guardian Force of LA
Legal Sanctions: Special Deputy
Private Citizen: In the United States, any citizen has the legal power to stop a crime in progress or apprehend a criminal leaving the scene of a crime by making a "citizen's arrest." all heroes that are not sponsored by the government work under this clause. Private citizens can be held accountable if they make a mistake or act with out sufficient proof. Citizens (or superheroes) without official authority can be charged with assault, harassment, and various others charges. If private citizens break the law or cause excessive property damage while trying to apprehend a criminal, they may be classified as vigilantes. On the other hand, if they are helpful to law enforcement agencies, and stay with in the law, they could be made special deputies.
Special Deputy: A special deputy is a hero who has been given the right by a law enforcement or a government agency to enforce the law, and make arrests. Customarily, superheroes do not begin their careers as special deputies - the classification has to be earned (The FBI for example doesn't just hand out special authority to everyone who wants to be a G-man). The special deputy must work with in the law - following proper channels, getting search warrants, having probable cause, making sure villains are read their rights, and engaging in no unnecessary violence. Peace officers must identify themselves as such, and allow criminals to surrender peacefully. As special deputies, heroes are under the same restriction. Identifying himself will make everyone aware that the hero is a "good guy" and not just another costumed creep committing random acts of violence (though it also alerts the villain of the hero's presence). Remember that law enforcement agencies and special deputies have specific jurisdictions - city police, county sheriffs, state troopers, etc. Federal agents range nation wide, but are generally confined to a set of objectives set by Congress (the IRS: Tax evasion; Treasury agents: counterfeiting; the Secret service: protecting the president, etc.).
Vigilante: Vigilantes are private citizens who have take the law into their own hands, using the criminals own methods against them (assault, breaking and entering, stealing, use of excessive force, etc). Vigilantes assume the role of judge, jury, and executioner by capturing villains, deciding their guilt, and administering punishment. A Vigilante is usually hunted by law enforcement agencies including, perhaps, government sanctioned superheroes, and super-agencies.

Powers: This will be divided into skills and gadgets:

His helmet provides:
    Night Vision
    X-Ray Vision
    Infrared Vision
    Motion Tracking
    Communication with the team and FBI
He carries twin hand-guns and ammo (he has regular bullets, tranquilizers and a few truth serum bullets)
Smoke bombs
Hacking devices
Tracking devices
Lockpicks
Wrist-mounted grappling cables
Magnetic cuffs (handcuffs)
His gloves can secrete a substance that allows him to climb on walls
He can connect to the internet through his helmet as well as listen to police scanners.


Personality: Think a mix of the Question, Spider-man and Batman.
Background: John Martor, who prefers to be called Shade, was the result of a century-long eugenics project. The FBI specifically bred the best-of-the-best of their agents, until the "perfect" spy was born. John took the codename "Shade" at the age of five when he began his trianing. He trained for ten years, becoming the best spy they could mold him into. At the age of fifteen, they enrolled John into public school so that he could work on his social skills.

They gave him almost full independence, only asking that he trained every day and that he dropped everything when he was needed for a mission. He accepted and by the age of sixteen Shade had become one of the most respected spies in the world. Shade had started a relationship with the princess of a small island nation, and the two became heavily committed. When he was 18, he proposed to her. She was killed by Sylar Nightingale soon after their engagement.

Shade moved to LA and joined the GF, fighting so that no one else would be forced to go through that.

You can call me Aster. Yes, I did revive this nation... Again...
